November Rainbow Babies

[kleinfor3]

Babydust-YAY!!! So happy you got your 12 week appointment booked. That made me feel like I was really moving in the right direction, I'm sure it did the same for you.

Sharon-So glad your scan went well. YAY!!!

Dahlia-You may have been feeling a little pain and that's what caused the dream but then again, it could of been on your mind and that caused it. DH left the tv on last night. It was some investigator channel where someone had been murdered. So I was dreaming about murder all night! Made for an awful long sleep. I need to tell him to leave it on the disney channel so at least I may dream of good things lol.

TMI question...Grape juice, does it make your poop black in color?
I normally don't drink it but as I was strolling past it at the grocery store it caught my eye and the 'angels started singing' and it was surrounded by a light. So I got it and had a few glasses then the black poop. It really disturbed me!!!! Poop isn't SUPPOSED to be black is it??? Is this normal????
In all of my years of pooping I have never seen black

Nice scan Sharon! I am thinking girl! : )

Babydust glad your appointment went well, and I'm sure they'll see soon enough that their dates will be off a bit!

Klein- Disney Channel! lmao!
and as for the poop, I don't know. It may have a lot of vitamins of something in it, causing the black poop, but I'm not sure.

Just a small rant ladies: a FB friend just announced her second pregnancy (her son just turned 1) and she's only 6 weeks. Me having had a miscarriage right before I was about to announce my pregnancy, then waiting a few months to conceive, and now being pregnant again, I am ready to scream from the mountain tops that I am pregnant!!! but I know it's not a good idea. I am just so envious that she has announced hers already : ( ugh, just sulking whenever I see her write about it and I'm sure we've all had similar situations like this one

Dahlia- There was one day on FB where FOUR of my friends announced pregnancies all on the same DAY! I couldn't believe it. I just decided to close up my laptop that day and didn't go on for a few days after- Ugh, I definitely know what you mean...I didn't even post my 1st pregnancy on FB and I was so naive then!

Klein it made me feel like I was too it still doesn't feel real though! And for the black poop.. What vitamins are you taking Klein, I'm almost 100% sure this will be the cause. Especially if you are taking iron or your vitamins have iron in x

I found that on April Fools Day a lot of people were joking about it. That actually made me pretty upset...I wanted to scream, It is not a F&*#$ n JOKE! Sorry for the profan but people can be so insensitive without even realizing it. I don't blame them it is just they are so innocent and haven't been through tragedies such as ours. We will never be the same again I don't think...

As for the grape juice...I am not sure about that! Maybe if you really like maybe dilute it with some water and see how that goes! I guess you can be happy that you are at least going...so many people suffer from consitpation in pregnancy! I was luckily never that person lol

Hope everyone has a Happy Easter weekend!

Klein- Are you any extra iron tabs as they can make your poo black. Not sure about the grape juice, I have had it in the past and I never really noticed any profound changes!

I too had strange dreams last night, which is unusually for me as I rarely remember if I dream. Mine was about stealing money from someone I work with. All electronically, not from her actual purse (like that is any better!!?) and the second was trying to find someone and the baddies trying to thwart me. Weird!!

I am very rarely on FB these days for that very reason. Not many announcing but lots of baby pics. I can't believe people would actually fake announce pg on April fool’s day, that’s just wrong all round despite their naivety.

I am not that lucky with regards constipation -boo. Fybogel seems to working, slowly!

Hi everyone

I just "discovered" this board so I came to introduce myself

I've had 4 mcs, all very early, 4-5 weeks. The first three 10 years ago and the last one at the en of January. After my mc I started taking contraceptive pills because I wanted to wait to heal emotionally at least a bit first but I also took antibiotics and didn't use a reinforcement method so yeah, a month after my mc I got a positive test

At first I was terrified, I worked on a cruise ship as a casino dealer and the ship's doctor said: If you really love this baby go home, money is not everything. The next american port I was boarding a plane home and so far so good.

I paid for an appointment as soon as I got home and also got a scan, saw little bean and heard the little hb at 6w 116 bpm. The doctor put me on progesterone and I'm going for another appointment next Tuesday, I'm scared to death and sometimes I can't believe this is really happening

Sorry for the long introduction oh! and my due date is Nov 5th

Happy and healthy 9 months to all... or like 8 months now right?

wow cata! welcome to the board and i am hoping this is your forever baby as you've been through 4 mcs. But as I can see from your ticker you are 9 weeks already. have you had another scan since 6 weeks?

AFM- my scan this morning went well. measuring 8 weeks 1 day. saw and HEARD heartbeat this time measuring 167 bpm. and i got two more pics and he looks like a gummy bear! lol so cute. ill post them if u want to see them

 

[Krippy]

Thank you I really hope so too. I haven't had any other scan since then so I cannot help to be nervous but I'll just wait I mean it's only what? 3 more days? Being 9 weeks is a huge milestone for me, I was never this far

Glad that your scan went well

I would LOVE to see your little gummy bear--my next scan will be @ 8weeks 2 days so I would love a preview of what I might be able to see!! Congrats on a great scan!

 

[DancingSheba]

ok here it is. the black hole (haha) in the baby's head is the brain developping or thats what they told me. and then you can see arm and leg buds on the body. sorry there is a glare on the pic. i am using my crapy webcam to photograph it.

 

[pinksmarties]

Dancing - fab picture, wonderful scan. Its nice to see what my bean will hopefully look like at the scan next week when I will be 8 weeks exactly.

Hi cata, glad you have a great early scan and hopefully the next one will reassure you this is your forever baby.

 

[Dahlia2007]

Welcome Cata and congrats! Seeing as you're almost 10 weeks now, you must be ecstatic!

Dancing- glad your scan went well, I can see the buds in the pic!

AFM- Using the bathroom probably 6 times a night! I should really cut down on beverages before bedtime. There is a stroller at Target I want to get, and I think I will buy it when I hit 12 weeks. I need to get started on my cheesy potatoes and jello dish for Easter! Have a great weekend everyone!

 

[Krippy]

I have an early scan at 6.3 weeks! I am worried that it will be too early to hear a HB or anything! Have any of you had early scans? What should I expect?

Beauty of a pic Sheba!

 

[Alandsa]

Awww that's a lovely scan pic DancingSheba! was it an internal scan? I shall be having mine on Tuesday and will be a day off 8 weeks by then so excited!

I was looking at videos on YouTube of people's scans and heard them mention the black hole where the brain was developing

 

[Dahlia2007]

Krippy, my first scan was exactly at 6+3 and we saw a heartbeat : )

That's interesting Alandsa and Dancing, I didn't realize that about the brain!

 

[DancingSheba]

yes it was an internal one
